HC Deb 16 November 1964 vol 702 c18W
Mr. Evelyn King

asked the Joint Under-Secretary of State for Education and Science, as representing the Minister of Technology, whether he proposes, when dealing with staff employed by the Atomic Energy Authority, to consult the representatives of the staff in any rearrangements which may take place.

Mr. Boyden

Yes. Shortly after his appointment, my right hon. Friend addressed a message to the staff of the Atomic Energy Authority in which, after referring to speculation which had occurred about changes affecting the Authority, he assured them that if any changes were to take place, staff associations and trade union representatives would be given full information and opportunity for comment through the Authority's established machinery.
